 ### ❓ What is SmokeAPI?
 
-SmokeAPI is a DLC unlocker for games that are _legitimately_ owned in your Steam account.
+SmokeAPI is a tool for Steamworks DLC ownership emulation in games that are _legitimately_ owned in Steam.
 It attempts to fool games that use Steamworks SDK (Steamworks) into thinking that you own the game's DLCs.
 However, SmokeAPI does not modify the rest of the Steamworks, hence features like multiplayer, achievements, and so on remain fully functional.

 * SmokeAPI will not work with games that employ additional ownership protection or if the game is using alternative DLC verification mechanism.
 * SmokeAPI is unlikely to work with games that use an anti-cheat, since they typically detect any DLL/EXE that has been tampered with. Sometimes it is possible to disable an anti-cheat, but that typically entails the loss of online capabilities. Search in the respective game topic for more information about how to disable anti-cheat.
 * Some games include DLC files in their base game, regardless of whether you own the DLC or not. However, some games download additional DLC files only after a user has bought the corresponding DLC. In this case, not only will you need to install SmokeAPI, but you also have to get the additional DLC files from somewhere else and put them into the game folder. Up-to-date DLC files often can be found in corresponding game topics.

 ### 🪝 Hook mode
 
+Hook mode itself has two sub-modes: Self-Hook and Hook with injector.
+
+#### 🪝 Self-Hook mode
+
+In self-hook mode SmokeAPI is injected automatically without the help of third-party injectors.
+It works best when a game doesn't have any protections against DLL injection.
+The main advantage of this mode is its minimal setup, which adds only 1 new DLL to the game folder.

+## 🛠️ Installation instructions (🐧 Linux)
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Linux support in SmokeAPI is highly experimental/unstable and has known issues.
+> If none of the methods below work for you, then consider running a Windows version of a game
+> via Proton compatibility layer and follow the instructions in the Windows section.
+
+### ✔️ Requirements
+
+Linux builds of SmokeAPI depend on several libraries. Make sure they are installed on your system.
+The following list features links in Arch Linux repositories, but if you are using a different distribution,
+you should use the equivalent package for your distro.
+
+Required libraries:

+  [[32-bit](https://archlinux.org/packages/multilib/x86_64/lib32-brotli/)]

+---
+
+Just like on Windows, SmokeAPI features 32 and 64-bit Linux builds.
+In release archive they are named as `libsmoke_api32.so` or `libsmoke_api64.so` respectively.
+However, unlike Windows, it is recommended to use proxy mode, rather than hook mode.
+This is because the current hook mode installation method has to directly launch game
+executable. However, by default Steam doesn't do that, instead it launches certain wrappers
+that setup game environment with optimal parameters. Hence, launching a game without those
+wrappers might cause issues in theory. However, in practice real tests show that hook mode has higher
+chance of success compared to proxy mode. So, at the end of the day, try both modes to see which one works
+best for you.
+
+
+### 🔀 Proxy mode (🐧 Linux)
+
+Same as on Windows:
+1. Rename the original `libsteam_api.so` to `libsteam_api_o.so`
+2. Extract and paste the `libsmoke_api32.so` or `libsmoke_api64.so` to the same directory, renaming it to `libsteam_api.so`.
+
+### 🪝 Hook mode (🐧 Linux)
+
+Linux doesn't have the same easily exploitable library injection mechanism that Windows has.
+However, it is possible to force any Linux executable to load any library by using the
+`LD_PRELOAD` environment variable. In fact, Steam itself already uses that to inject its overlay,
+hence we can use it as well. But we have to include that overlay library as well when specifying
+`LD_PRELOAD`, otherwise the game will be launched with SmokeAPI, but without Steam overlay.
+
+For example:
+
+1. Extract and paste the `libsmoke_api32.so` or `libsmoke_api64.so` in the root of game's installation directory.
+2. In Steam _Library_ open game's _Properties_, switch to the _General_ tab, and set the following _LAUNCH OPTIONS_:
+
+| Bitness | Launch Options                                                                                                         |
+|---------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| 32-bit  | `LD_PRELOAD="./libsmoke_api32.so $HOME/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so" ./<GameExe32> %command%` |
+| 64-bit  | `LD_PRELOAD="./libsmoke_api64.so $HOME/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/gameoverlayrenderer.so" ./<GameExe64> %command%` |
+
+Where `<GameExe32>` and `<GameExe64>` correspond to the actual filename of the game executable. For example:
+- `TheEscapists2.x86` (32-bit)
+- `TheEscapists2.x86_64` (64-bit)
+- `_linux/darkest.bin.x86` (32-bit)
+- `_linux/darkest.bin.x86_64` (64-bit)
+- `bin/linux_x64/eurotrucks2` (64-bit)
+- `binaries/victoria3` (64-bit)
+
+And so on. Notice that Linux executables do not have `.exe` extension like on Windows, so make sure to copy the entire
+file name as it is. Naturally, the exact options might change depending on where files are located on your filesystem
+and other environment variables you might have specified previously.
+If you have other environment variables, and you don't know how to correctly combine them,
+then please make extensive use of search engines and LLMs for guidance and examples
+before seeking help the official forum topic.

 ### 🔑 How SmokeAPI works in games with large number of DLCs
 
-Some games that have a large number of DLCs begin ownership verification by querying the Steamworks API for a list of all available DLCs.
+Some the games that have a large number of DLCs begin ownership verification by querying the Steamworks API for a list of all available DLCs.
 Once the game receives the list, it will go over each item and check the ownership.
 The issue arises from the fact that response from Steamworks SDK may max out at 64, depending on how much unowned DLCs the user has.
 To alleviate this issue, SmokeAPI will make a web request to Steam API for a full list of DLCs, which works well most of the time.
